Sadio Mané: "Why would I want 10 Ferraris, 20 diamond watches, or 2 planes? #football #shorts #sadiomane #soccer #fcliverpool #liverpool #bayernmunich #bayan
A footballer shared his journey from hardship to success, emphasizing his commitment to helping others. During a trial for a football team, an older man skeptically observed him, questioning if he was in the right place. "Are you here for the trials?" he asked. The footballer affirmed, but the man continued, "With those shoes? Look at them, how can you think you can play with those?" Indeed, the shoes were old and worn out. The man also remarked on his shorts, "Don't you have proper football shorts?" The footballer explained that he was there with the best equipment he had and just wanted to demonstrate his abilities.
Once on the field, the footballer surprised everyone. The older man was taken aback by his skills and immediately offered him a spot on the team, saying, "You're hired, you'll play on my team."
Reflecting on his past, the footballer recounted the hunger, tough times, and playing barefoot. He did not attend school and never experienced leisure activities or parties, knowing that he needed to give his all to achieve his goals.
Today, with his earnings, he supports others in need. He has built schools, a stadium, and provided clothing, shoes, and food to those in extreme poverty. Additionally, he donates €70 monthly to every resident of a poor area in Senegal to support family economies.
"Why would I want ten Ferraris, twenty diamond watches, and two planes? What good do these things do for the world?" he asked. He also expressed his disdain for video games, a popular pastime among his peers, calling them a waste of time. "I have never used a PlayStation; I think it's just a way to waste time, and I don't want to waste my time."
Through his story, the footballer highlights the importance of resilience and the value of giving back to the community, proving that success is not just about personal gain but also about lifting others.
